Deploying large language models (LLMs) on edge platforms is challenged by their high computational and memory demands. Although recent low-bit quantization methods (e.g., BitNet, DeepSeek) compress weights to as little as 1.58 bits with…
While collisional accumulation is nearly universally accepted as the formation mechanism of rock and ice worlds, the situation regarding gas giant planet formation is more nuanced. Gas accretion by solid cores formed by collisional…

We examine the properties of the Fe emission lines that arise near 6.4 keV in the ASCA spectra of AGN. Our emphasis is on the Seyfert 1 galaxies where broad and apparently complex Fe K alpha emission is observed. We consider various origins…
Relativistic jets launched from stellar-mass compact objects embedded in the accretion disk of an active galactic nucleus (AGN) can produce nonthermal emission upon successfully breaking out of the disk. In this paper, we present a…
About a hundred tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been observed and they exhibit a wide range of emission properties both at peak and over their lifetimes. Some TDEs peak predominantly at X-ray energies while others radiate chiefly at UV…
Models of accretion discs surrounding active galactic nuclei (AGNs) find vast applications in high-energy astrophysics. The broad strategy is to parametrize some of the key disc properties such as gas density and temperature as a function…
